Rant: Google Ads

Nothing drives me away from a site faster than a page embedded with Google ads all over it. How many places do you really need to place those ads, people? Inside the first post, at the top of the page, at the bottom of the page on the sidebar - all at once.

Have admins become so despirate for what little CTR forums give Google ads that they are trying to improve their number by fulling more than half the page with ads?

Get a clue people! Going from .3% to .4% isn't going to generate you that much more money, folks. You're killing your users experience by bombarding them with ads that interfere with reading your site.
